() Based on the strength of Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie, this wild boar appeared just to deliver food to them. In fact, Xiao Luo and Xuanxuan could deal with it, and Cui Lie was very good at flying knives.
Rong Xianxian smiled unceremoniously at the wild boar's selfless dedication. She put the whole pig and the pig leg into the sachet space, and the two elders and two younger ones continued to follow the little bird.
With this wild boar, they have had enough food for the past few days. They can fry, barbecue or stew. The fresh meat tastes much better than the dry jerky. Well, when they get to the supply point ahead tonight, Maybe you can also cook braised pork. I had it last time at Aunt Liu's in Baihua Town. The taste was really unforgettable.
"Sister Rong, why do I feel something is wrong? Are there no powerful monsters around here?" Cui Lie frowned and said.
Rong Xianxian and the others have encountered many wild animals along the way, including wild gray rabbits, pheasants with long tail feathers, black-necked pheasants with colorful feathers, and they even saw a little piglet. An average sized hedgehog.
Rong Xianxian thought carefully and said, "There is indeed something wrong. I will contact Wang Lin."
"Alin, how are you doing there? Are there any problems?" Rong Xianxian asked through the sound transmission jade talisman.
"No problem, Sister Rong. How is your search going? Do you need help?" Wang Lin replied. Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie have not been out for a long time. Logically speaking, it is impossible to find ice crystals in such a short time. Tree.
"As long as you're fine, be careful." Rong Xianxian warned and cut off the call.
"Sister Rong, natural selection and survival of the fittest. How do these harmless little animals survive in this environment? There is neither mutation nor extinction. Are there no monsters around here?" You must know All kinds of monsters not only feed on humans, but also wild animals and domestic livestock. Rong Xianxian and the others have traveled along the way. In other places, the surviving wild animals have their own abilities, so although there are also There are many fish that have slipped through the net, but none are like here. The number and variety of wild animals are so large that it is comparable to a wild animal nature reserve that was artificially raised before the end of the world.
"This place is not far from the official supply point shown on the map. It may be that the army is performing tasks here and cleaning up here, so there are no monsters here. It is also possible that there is a particularly powerful monster nearby. The higher the monster level, the more powerful the monster is. Higher, the larger the territory, no matter what, if something goes wrong, there must be a monster, we have to speed up!" Although Rong Xianxian did not feel any danger, she felt a little uneasy because of Cui Lie's words.
It didn't matter if they couldn't find the ice crystal tree. If they were in danger, they would be in trouble. Rong Xianxian decided in her heart that if they really couldn't find the ice crystal tree, they would return the way they came.
"Mom, hurry up and follow, Ao Ao said you'll be there soon." Xuanxuan was chasing Ao Ao and was walking in front, but suddenly turned her head in the direction of Rong Xianxian and shouted cheerfully.
"What?" Rong Xianxian glanced at Cui Lie suspiciously. Did she hear it right?
Cui Lie looked at her innocently. That's what Xuanxuan said. He also heard it and didn't know if it was true.
Rong Xianxian looked at the flat terrain, ample light, and green grass, and thought about the introduction about the ice crystal tree she had read in the "Spiritual Plant Map". Ice crystal trees like water, shade, and coolness, and are more popular. They grow in mountain streams, at the bottom of valleys or in the depths of canyons. When they passed through a valley under the leadership of the little bird, Rong Xianxian originally had great expectations, but after searching around, she found that except for a few wild pepper trees, two Nesting wild bird eggs, nothing was found. Walking out of the valley, there was this plain. Rong Xianxian had originally planned to give up, but she didn't expect to hear Xuanxuan say that she was almost there.
Rong Xianxian doubtfully walked towards the direction Xuanxuan pointed. Looking at this plain, the field of vision was wide. Except for a few lonely big trees, it was just a flat grassland. How could there be any ice crystal trees?
The little bird chirped twice, its wings flickered and flapped twice, accelerated towards the front, and flew out "suddenly". Rong Xianxian's eyes followed the chirp, and at this moment she saw the bird dive. , disappeared into the ground.
Rong Xianxian's eyes widened in surprise.
Xuanxuan was still running forward, and when she saw that she was almost at the point where the bird disappeared, Rong Xianxian ran a few steps, grabbed Xuanxuan, and observed carefully.
Where the bird disappeared, a large field of humus grew, with lush branches and leaves, and was airtight.
Humulus humulus, also known as cutman's vine, is a perennial herbaceous climbing plant. Its branches, leaves, and stalks are all covered with barbed thorns. The leaves are pentagonal, with a rough surface and serrated edges. This piece of Humulus humulus is also I don’t know how many years it has been growing. The branches are long and the leaves are strong. The barbs are thick and sharp, and they seem to be shining in the sunlight.
Rong Xianxian used a long stick to pull apart the piece of humus. There was a deep crack underneath, and the light was blocked by the humus. It was pitch black underneath and nothing could be seen clearly.
"This crack is less than five meters long and only thirty centimeters wide. It is also covered by this patch of weeds. If Aao Ao hadn't led the way, it would be really difficult for us to find it. However, there are really ice crystal trees growing in such a narrow place. Is it here?" Cui Lie had already inspected the area around the crack and now looked at the crack suspiciously.
Rong Xianxian was also staring at this dark crack suspiciously. Darkness would bring terrible imagination to people. She didn't know what kind of danger would be lurking in the darkness, but if there was really any danger, Aoao might not be able to escape. , Rong Xianxian took out a strong flashlight in the sachet space and shined it into the depths of the crack. There were uneven rock walls on both sides of the crack. Some places were wide and some were narrow. The cracks were not straight downwards. I couldn't see the bottom at a glance, and I couldn't see the bird.
"You guys wait above, I'll go down and take a look." Cui Lie tied the cuffs and trouser legs, straightened his clothes and said to Rong Xianxian.
"No, let's go down together. If anything happens, it's better to have someone to take care of them." Rong Xianxian put the two children into the small backpack and prepared to take action with Cui Lie.
Rong Xianxian dug out two power rappelling ropes in the sachet space. They were found by Rong Xianxian in an outdoor sporting goods store. These ropes are very strong and have great elasticity. Rong Xianxian collected a lot of them easily.
"Sister Rong, do you even have a rappelling rope?" Cui Lie looked at the rappelling rope in Rong Xianxian's hand in surprise. In fact, there is no rappelling rope. With the skills of the two of them, it is easy to get down, but with speed Lowering the rope can free your hands and better protect against unknown dangers during the descent.
